Modern commemorative coins are coins minted to honor a specific event, person, or theme, typically issued by the United States Mint. The 50-cent coins (50c) from the Modern Commemorative series, particularly those issued starting in 1982, often celebrate significant anniversaries or milestones. The 1992 Modern Commemorative coins marked the 500th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's voyage to the Americas, reflecting both historical significance and artistic design, and are sought after by collectors due to their limited mintage and commemorative nature.
